A sacred family bond between God and His people.

• A. Salvation History
• B. Incarnation
• C. Covenant
• D. Typology

Answer: (C)

A sacred family bond points to a covenant. In biblical language, a covenant is a binding, relational agreement that creates a family-like relationship between God and His people. It establishes kinship—God as Father and His people as members of His household—with promises, blessings, and responsibilities that shape how they live together over time. This sense of belonging and obligation across generations is why covenant best fits the idea of a sacred family bond. The other terms describe different concepts: Salvation History is the overall story of God’s saving actions, Incarnation is God the Son becoming human in Jesus, and Typology is a method of interpreting Scripture by seeing events or persons as foreshadowing something else. None of those conveys the explicit, ongoing relational bond captured by covenant.
